I know that when reversing on full lock the car skips around a little so I knock it into manual and green light on the bottom, well today as I was pulling out of a really tight parking space going forward on full lock in auto I felt the same type of skip/twitch......should it happen when going forward?

yes mine did the same when doing tight slow turns in auto

 

Thanks domino, feels ****ing awful doesn't it, surely it's not good for the transmission?

 

yeah can be a pain in the **** at times ,, I got into the habit of flicking it into manual soon as I got into the motor , the plus side was I could get it drifting in manual

not sure if it would do any damage to be honest but doesn't feel good when it happens

 

In Manual mode what setting do you use for everyday use?

 

fully open ,,, used manual fully open for everyday driving ,, auto I used for spirited driving

 

is it a little tail happy in fully open on manual setting?

 

yeah it can be but once you get used to what its going to do it makes for some really fun driving

 

Lol ok.......so why do you run it in auto then??? Is it because you would get too carried away

 

pretty much lol

 

never drive a type r if that's what you think lol
